Oven Pear Pancake Recipes

GERMAN PEAR PANCAKE

Steps:

• Toss pear slices with 1/4 cup white sugar, lemon juice, and lemon zest to coat.
• Arrange butter in a 12-inch cast-iron skillet and place on the center rack of the oven. Heat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Remove skillet from oven once the butter has just melted, 3 to 5 minutes.
• Beat eggs in a large bowl until frothy; add milk, 1/4 cup white sugar, vanilla extract, and salt and mix until just combined. Sift flour into egg mixture and stir until batter is just mixed.
• Stir pear slices into the melted butter and spread into a single layer. Pour batter over pears.
• Bake in the preheated oven until pancake is set in the middle, the sides have risen, and the bottom is browned, 28 to 30 minutes. Top pancake with confectioners' sugar.

FLUFFY OVEN PANCAKE WITH PEARS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
• Whisk the flour, granulated sugar, baking powder and 1/2 teaspoon salt in a large bowl. Whisk the milk, vanilla, eggs and 4 tablespoons of the butter in a medium bowl. Add the wet ingredients to the dry and whisk until just combined. Fold in the cottage cheese with a rubber spatula. Transfer the mixture to a large liquid measuring cup for easy pouring.
• Heat the remaining 2 tablespoons butter in a medium ovenproof nonstick skillet over medium heat until bubbling. Arrange the pear wedges in the skillet in a pinwheel pattern, with the thin tips pointing out and the rounded ends meeting in the center. Cook to soften the pears slightly, about 2 minutes. Sprinkle with the brown sugar, cover and cook until the sugar starts to melt, about 2 minutes.
• Uncover the skillet and pour in the batter, starting at the outside edge and working in a circular pattern towards the center. (This will keep the pears in place.) Continue to cook on the stovetop until the butter starts to bubble up around the edges, about 2 minutes. Transfer to the oven and bake, uncovered, until set and golden, 25 to 30 minutes.
• Carefully invert the pancake onto a serving dish. Serve with pats of butter and maple syrup for topping.
